I think like any relationship, T just gets more comfortable with you and knows you so well, like they almost automatically know how you're doing day-to-day, as much as I complain that they aren't mind readers. I've been seeing my T for 9 1/2 years. She used to tell me little stories about something in her own life, but now I notice that she hasn't really self disclosed in over a year. I think it's because my own treatment has evolved from more growing-up-"situational" problems (i.e. how to handle myself when I was in college, feeling like I was the only single person my age, how to tell someone off. etc.) into vulnerable, deeper stuff involving my most personal thoughts and feelings. Maybe she feels that offering a personal anecdote (which I kind of miss) is not helpful at this point in my therapy.
